Twentieth-Century Seaside Architecture.
<p><meta charset="utf-8"><span>Une exploration nostalgique des bâtiments typiques et architecturaux du front de mer britan- nique, des années 1920 au nouveau millénaire. Les stations balnéaires britanniques ont joui d’une popularité phénoménale pendant la majeure partie du XXe siècle. Raconté de manière chronologique, ce livre est le premier à montrer com- ment l’architecture des stations balnéaires de la côte britannique a suivi l’évolution de la mode et la concurrence croissante des destinations étrangères. À l’aide d’images de cartes postales d’époque, Kathryn Ferry met en évidence le caractère ludique inhérent à l’architecture balnéaire, qui a évolué du classicisme de l’entre-deux-guerres au style du milieu du siècle inspiré du Festival of Britain, en passant par l’art déco et le modernisme internatio- nal, puis, plus tard, par les gratte-ciel du front de mer et les plages artificielles des centres de loisirs des années soixante-dix. Présentant un large éventail de types de bâtiments, Twentieth Century Seaside Architecture explore tous les domaines, des cabanes de plage aux kiosques à musique, en passant par les lidos, les jetées, les théâtres, les hôtels et les galeries d’attractions. Alors que le changement climatique et la ambée du cot de la vie provoquent une évolution des attitudes à l’égard du voyage, le bord de mer britannique connaît un regain de popularité, ce qui fait de cette période le moment idéal pour défendre notre héritage architectural en matière de tourisme domestique. Proposant une réévaluation convaincante, Twentieth Century Seaside Archi- tecture séduira les amateurs d’architecture et de design qui aiment être au bord de la mer.</span></p> Londres, 2025 Batsford 240 p., nombreuses fig. couleur, cartonnage éditeur 23,4 x 19,5

Seventeenth-century English Miniatures in the Collection of the Victoria and Albert Museum.
<p>This publication is a complete catalogue of 17th-century miniatures in the national collection at the Victoria and Albert Museum. It offers a full account of the physical construction of the miniatures, setting each object in its historical context both in terms of the artist's oeuvre and of the portraiture of the known sitters. A biographical introduction to each artist is followed by individual catalogue entries, which cover details about the sitters; the object's size and format; the materials and techniques employed; the signature or inscription; the miniature's condition, frame and provenance; and reference to any supporting exhibitions and literature. Each object is illustrated in its frame, as miniatures were often used as jewels to be worn on the person.</p> Londres, 1997 Oxbow 375 p., très nombreuses illustrations et planches, reliure toile éditeur sous jaquette et emboîtage. 22,5 x 28,5

Making Waves: Crosscurrents in the Study of Nineteenth-Century Art
, Brepols, 2020 Hardback, iv + 277 pages, Size:216 x 280 mm, Illustrations:45 b/w, 61 col., 3 tables b/w., Language: English. ISBN 9782503584409.
Summary Making Waves: Crosscurrents in the Study of Nineteenth-Century Art honours the life work of Petra ten-Doesschate Chu, who continues to lead the field in the study of the art of the nineteenth century. The twenty-eight essays in this book are authored by some of her many friends, students, and colleagues, including seasoned academics and those at the beginning of their careers; museum professionals and private-sector arts administrators; and American, European, and Chinese scholars. Following Petra Chu's example, and avoiding opaque theoretical language and extended technical analysis, authors present original ideas, based primarily on the study of objects and their documented historical contexts. Though their methodologies are diverse, their purposes are clear and their language straight-forward. The essays thoughtfully and respectfully address the solid reality of the nineteenth century in all of its complex (and sometimes repugnant) sensibilities. They disrupt traditional art historical categories and methodologies, and highlight topics that have been long ignored and overlooked. Making Waves demonstrates, in no uncertain terms, that art historians still have much to say to each other and to their readers, and that nineteenth-century art has only begun to be explored in all its complexity and variety.
